Ashubhanaashini Navratra Utsav

The Ashubhanaashini Navratra Utsav (ASHWIN NAVRATRA) celebrations will begin at Shree Aniruddha Gurukshetran from Wednesday 28th September 2011 and continue till DASERA ( VIJAYAA DASHMI) i.e 6th of October. This year’s Navratra has a special significance as our P.P Bapu will begin HIS GHOR TAPASCHARYAA from this day. P.P Bapu will be performing a sacred HAVAN (Yadnya) everyday at Shree Aniruddha Gurukshetram.

This Yadnya will start from the first day of this Navratra i.e 28th September. The daily rituals at Shree Aniruddha Gurukshetram will continue as usual during the YADNYA period as well.

On the first day of the Navratra we all shraddhaavaans do the traditional welcoming of the “TOODAES” of our beloved MOTHIAAI. P.P Nadaai is always present for this Event. This event will start at 10am. These “TOODAES” were offered to MOTHIAAI during the STHAAPANAA utsav. These TOODAES are kept for Darshan during both the NAVRATRAS only.
